I've written a sql to elasticsearch mapping tool I feel I should of released. Eleasticsearch is in desperate need of many tools we take for granted in sql land, like a command line client you can easily punch in queries on the fly because trying to write multi line json into the commandline curl is death so I'm forced to install kibana.
- yazr 9y agoCan you give a few more examples ? I am interested because writing these support tools IS effort+time+focus but not usually a technical problem.
- cdevs 9y agoMostly emulating what phpMyAdmin can do, the time spent for a elasticsearch beginner trying to figure out how to clear a index without losing or having to rebuild their mapping is insane, basically the answer is just don't and just copy your mapping but if something could easily extract that and say flush index then awesome. Creating mappings is a nightmare if you don't remember what types they have and it would be insanely simple to do the phpMyAdmin style of create table where you type in a "column" name and then use the drop down for the type "string, date, geo point".
